Gangguan Bridge, named through a public vote, is a 13m high, 92.5m long pedestrian bridge spanning Gangguan Port, the hub of Tongyeong's fishing industry. Illuminated with colorful lights at night, the bridge offers a stunning view of the city center and the serene sea. It is renowned as an observation point to appreciate the night scenery from atop the bridge.

2. Dpirang
Dpirang is the country's first and largest outdoor digital theme park. Inspired by murals that change every two years in Dongpirang Village, a famous mural village in South Korea, Dpirang incorporates media art. A 1.5km hillside trail adorned with harmonious music enhances the experience.

3. Gangguan Cultural Square
A pivotal landmark in Tongyeong's night tourism, Gangguan Cultural Square features a large sculpture of Tongyeong's mascot, 'Dongbaegi' (a seagull character), holding the Tongyeong night tourism slogan 'Tonight TongYeong' over the sea.

Best Sunset Spots to Enjoy a Golden Sunset
